What are your favorite lines of dialogue from a Broadway Musical? — Page 4

Two of the lines aren't correct. Sorry to be such a bother and all but I don't remember the two lines, I know their not right. Close enough though You have a good memory.

Janet: I hear you are marrying Janet Van de Graaff, no?
Robert: Oui.
Janet: I hear she is very beautiful?
Robert: Oui.
Janet: And glamorous?
Robert: Ah, oui oui.
Janet: Is it true that she has an exceptionally broad range and excels at playing both comedic and dramatic roles?

DRS:

Jolene: It's not like you'll be the only royalty in town. There's a Dairy Queen right down the road.

Glinda: Well what have you been doing? Apart from riding around on that filthy old thig (points to broom)

Elphaba: Well we can't all come and go by BUBBLE!

----------------------------------------------------------------

Someone mentioned it earlier but the scene at the train station in Wicked...

Fiyero: Elphaba, I've been thinking

Elphaba: Yes (pause) I've heard

One of the only lines on the W/E that gets a round of applause after...we don't go in for that (the rounds of applause..apart from at the end obviously) here,
----------------------------------------------------------------

And while this ins't in the broadway version, only us 'special' people in London...just before Fiyero and Galinda meet.

Elphaba: How can you let your driver run over innocent people like that (something along those lines)

Fiyero: Well, perhaps he saw green and thought it meant go.

Jack: What a beautiful cape!
Little Red: Stay away from my cape! Or I'll slice you into a thousand bits.
Jack: I don't want. I was just admiring it.
Little Red: My granny made it for me from a wolf that attacked us. And I got to skin the animal. And best of all, she gave me this beautiful knife for protection.
Jack: Oh yeah? Well, look what I have. A hen that lays golden eggs!
Little Red: I don't believe that egg came from that hen. Where'd you get the egg?
Jack: I stole it from the kingdom of the giant. And if you think this is something, you should see the harp. It plays the most beautiful music without you even having to touch it.
Little Red: Of course it does. Why don't you go back to the kingdrom right now and bring it back and show me?
Jack: I could
Little Red: You could not.
Jack: Yes I could
